They have also built a new labeling plant, and they have continued social developments affecting the well-being of their employees and the energy modernization of their production complexes.

Bálint Lévai said that a solar energy production system has been built at the company’s sites, which will provide 30 percent of the electricity consumption in the future, thus significantly reducing the company’s environmental impact.

He added that the company has established its own production plants and logistics center in Szadá and Dunakeszi on a total usable area of 45,000 square meters, with a storage capacity of 24,000 pallets. It manufactures and packages the majority of its products here, with an annual production capacity of 75 million bars, 20 thousand tons of powder and one billion capsules and tablets.

The CEO explained that the design and implementation phase of the development project lasted a total of 3 years, the company is now carrying out test production, and full production is expected to start in the second half of 2025.

He announced that in 2024, the company closed its best year in its history with a sales revenue of 93.7 billion forints, of which more than 5 percent was spent on plant development. The group launched 25 new products, opened 20 new stores, increased the number of countries it covers to 103 with 5 new states, and signed a global cooperation agreement unique in the region with one of the world’s most prestigious football clubs, FC Barcelona, the CEO added.
